About

Biggles is a coding assistant designed for integration into Visual Studio Code, providing users with the ability to insert or modify code through voice commands or typed instructions. Utilizing the OpenAI Whisper and ChatGPT APIs, users can give voice instructions via CMD+M/CTRL+M or typed commands using CMD+ALT+M/CTRL+ALT+M to direct Biggles to execute coding tasks. Biggles can insert new code at the cursor's current position or modify code when selection is made, delivering tailored code suggestions according to user input. The tool requires users to supply their own OpenAI API key for operation.
